Exclusive: Keshet International is doubling down on its German business by launching a standalone scripted arm in the European country.
Keshet Germany will launch with a slate that includes another remake of False Flag, the Israeli format that was recently remade by Keshet UK as Suspicion, starring Uma Thurman and Kunal Nayaar. Also on the slate is a reboot of the Dr Mabuse crime franchise from Paradise writer Boris Kunz and a reimagining of 14th century German pirate myth Klaus Störtebeker.
The division is born out of Keshet’s Tresor TV, which launched scripted division Keshet Tresor Fiction (Ktf) five years ago. Following the adaptations of Stockholm, known locally as Unter Freunden Stirbt Man Nicht (You Don’t Die Among Friends), for Rtl+, and production of How to Dad for Ard Degeto and thriller Der Schatten for ZDFneo, it’s been decided to relaunch Ktf as a standalone business.

Fantastic Fest Announces List Of Short Films which includes must sees ‘Cop Hard’ and ‘Infernal Nuns’
The complete list of short films screening at Fantastic Fest has been announced. Unfortunatly as with most short films, there isn’t too much known about many of these. I know Infernal Nuns recieved a lot of praise from various blogs after it screened at Fantasia and Cop Hard is based on the popular web series, but apart from that, I’m pretty much in the dark. What I do know is that sometimes the short films are more rewarding than some features. Remember folks, some of these directors may go on to do some very big things in the near future, so try and check them out. Here is the press release.
Austin, TX-Wednesday, August 24th, 2011- Fantastic Fest is excited to announce the short film lineup for the seventh edition of Fantastic Fest, happening September 22-29 in Austin, Texas. Fantastic Fest loves its short films – they provide a...
